The Phoenix Suns are tapping into one of their most beloved uniform designs this season.
The franchise will bring back “The Valley” jerseys that became synonymous with their memorable run to the NBA Finals.
The uniforms with desert-inspired accents captured fans’ attention at their debut and now return as part of the team’s regular rotation.
“The Suns are bringing back their iconic ‘The Valley’ uniforms this season. Phoenix made their incredible run to the NBA Finals in 2021 wearing these as the primary uniform,” Evan Sidery of Forbes wrote on X.

The original jerseys debuted during the 2020-21 campaign and became the primary look as Phoenix surged through the playoffs and reached the Finals for the first time since 1993.
That postseason run reinvigorated the franchise and gave these uniforms lasting significance.
This season’s version keeps the core design elements while adding updated touches. The pixelated sunset gradient remains central to the look.
“The Valley” wordmark now features a western-inspired font that draws from the team’s 1970s uniforms.
The jerseys include tribal step patterns and orange star details. These elements honor the region’s cultural roots and reference the 1995 NBA All-Star Game in Phoenix.
Fans will see the uniforms in at least 10 home games, starting Nov. 18 against the Orlando Magic.
The Suns also plan to introduce a black Statement Edition uniform later in the season, though design specifics remain under wraps.
The return of “The Valley” jerseys gives the Suns another way to connect with fans who remember that special playoff run.
